ORIENTAL IRIS 
Iris Kaempferi 
*““The Hardy Garden Orchid’’ 
These summer-blooming Iris are among the most 
important of the hardy perennials. In beauty, form, 
and color they rival or even surpass the orchid. 
They grow splendidly in a sunny position in any 
ordinary good garden soil that may be watered 
heavily near blooming-time, and are especially effec- 
tive planted at the edge of a pool or along a stream. 
Attaining a height of about 3 feet, the flowers come 
in a wide variety of color and as large as 8 inches 
across. The 3-petaled varieties are equally as 
artistic as the 6-petaled kinds, for their charm and 
sparkle compensate for then lack of petalage. 
NOTE: AIl varieties have a pronounced gold 
streak toward the base of the petals.
